At this International Women’s Day event celebration in India, men express their love, care, appreciation and affection towards women just like the event of Mother’s Day or Valentine’s Day. It is celebrated every year with a preplanned and particular theme of the year to strengthen the political and social awareness towards the women.

Women’s Day is celebrated by organizing variety of programs like seminars, women parade, conferences, banner, debates, presentations, speeches, competitive activities, women’s issues, dinners, and breakfasts including other women rights promotional activities. Teachers are given flowers and cards by their students.

These days’ rapes, murders and many bad or inhuman activities are done with Women. Our society has to understand the value of women and her secure life. The arrangement of parties, lectures by our so called experts, rallies, and candle march can do nothing for women.

Let us stand together and remove all these inhuman activities from our society so that no more ‘Nirbhaya case’ takes place in our India.
